Chapter 269 - Chapter 269: Chapter Two-Hundred and Sixty-Nine: Dignity (2/2)

Lin Yu’s aunt was offended and wanted to say something, but seeing Lin Yu’s glacial expression, she had no choice but to swallow her words. In their current position, they had no choice but to concede! Their very livelihoods were dependent on this young lady’s whims and mercy.

She grabbed her daughter, Lin Zhu, and pulled her along as she reluctantly walked out. Lin Yu stared at their leaving figures and felt a sense of helplessness rise from the bottom of her heart.

The Xi family’s butler came over, and Lin Yu called out to him, “Mr. Zhou, thank you! ”

Mr. Zhou was slightly confused and hurriedly replied, “Miss Lin, I—

Lin Yu smiled wryly and explained, “Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for bringing my aunt and cousin to the side hall. You saved my dignity.” Mr. Zhou couldn’t help but look a little sheepish, thinking, ‘It’s the Xi familVs dignity I wanted to save, not yours.’

“Mr. Zhou, I have a favor to ask,” Lin Yu said softly, tears in her eyes.

“I’m at your command,” Mr. Zhou quickly and respectfully responded.

Lin Yu calmly stated, “When anyone from the Lin family comes to visit in the future, regardless of whether I’m here or not, tell them I’m not and give them my phone number. Mr. Zhou, I don’t mind telling you that they’re only looking for me to ask for money or do something for them. I’m willing to help them as much as I can, but I can’t damage the Xi family’s reputation, so please do me this favor, Mr. Zhou. Tell the servants and staff to do so as well.”

“Yes, okay, Young Madam. I’ll give them the order immediately,” Mr. Zhou replied even more respectfully than before and even addressed her as ” Young Madam.”

Lin Yu pretended she didn’t notice the change and smiled at him before turning around and walking towards the banquet hall. She instantly stopped in her tracks when she reached the hall’s entrance because she saw a face from her nightmares.

‘ Why is she here? What’s she doing here? It’s already been so long; has she been spending all this time licking her wounds, and now she’s here to snatch Xi Cheng away? Lin Yu thought fearfully.

‘Xi Cheng has already begun to accept me; just now, he’d spoken to me amiably and even discussed things with me. As long as I’m patient enough and have enough forbearance, Xi Chengs heart will eventually return to me!’

However, Fang Xi showed up; she was here. ‘IfXi Cheng sees FangXi, all my hard work will go to waste! It definitely will; I know it!’ Lin Yu panicked.. ‘ What should I do? What should I do?
